It was just before seven pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and I were seated commenting on the recent rugby, waiting around for the 6th job to come in. Eventually we got a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the BP filling station in Shalford and filled petrol in her diesel Renault rental. She was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure area and, as it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we could get to her quickly. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to return to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away contented and not so anxious. A fuel drain in Essex well done in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel
Throughout Essex we have seen more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by motorists being unsure of how to use it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the car.
Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is mostly deionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.
If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And of course be careful not to start up the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important issue to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel may lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances rather easily.
Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

I wouldn't like being stuck in a vehicle contaminated with the wrong fuel halfway down the street. One of our last customers who filled her diesel car with petrol (Vauxhall) in Shalford suffered exactly this kind of difficulty: "Your man helped me remove my car from the road. He had it drained and had it going again after only 30 minutes. Couldn't recommend you more."

A young lady working in Shalford called us as soon as she had managed to get her misfueled vehicle to work. She had filled unleaded in her diesel Hyundai and, like many prior to her, imagined that she would be able to basically fill up her car with diesel and it would be no problem. The vehicle was chugging and then it stopped when she reached the the front of her office. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it sorted in 60 minutes whilst she was in the office. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm really delighted you sorted my vehicle."
